During planning for worship a while back Bob, the pastor at Oakland Baptist Church in Rock Hill, mentioned he was going to make use of the old hymn ​Standing in the Need of Prayer​ for this past week’s sermon.

Now, I’m not a crazy holiday shopper, or someone who has a nutty sweater for each of the 12 Days of Christmas, though I do have a red sweater that I tend to wear around now… I especially love Christmas and this season of Advent because of the music! So many songs during this time are just so joyful – I love it!
